Birchpaw grunted and opened one emerald eye to see his mentor, Icefoot, above him, prodding him in the side. ''Come on, a few of the apprentices and mentors are going out for a hunting trip; were both going.'' mewed his mentor, his dark coat glimmering in the nightlight. ''This late?'' asked Birchpaw, his reddish coat a golden-brown in the moon-light. ''Yes, have you not heard that mice are the best in the night?''asked his mentor, beginning to padd out of the den. Birchpaw sighed then stood up, streching and padding out of the den. Birchpaw padded out of the den and stood next to Icefoot, shaking his big paws to get rid of the clumps of moss that got caught in his claws. Why do i have to have big paws? he thought sighing as he tugged on a piece of moss. The piece broke free, and he threw it into the dark of the forest, not really caring were it went. ''You ok?'' asked Icefoot, his eyes narrowing. ''Yah, i`m just a bit annoyed with my paws right now.'' repyled Birchpaw.

Jadepaw awoke herelf and stared into pace for a moment or two. She finaly walked out of the den,She climbed up one of the tallest trees she could find (she didnt realize how far off she was going) and sat on a branch,"Its so late...."she said to herself. She sat and watched the night slowly fade away untill she heard a voice which made her freeze it wasn't a voice from solar clan she knew that for sure. She looked down and realized white claw roaming around....Had she wondered off to far...or was whiteclaw hunting on their territory?

Once all the apprentices and mentors were all there, Icefoot stood on top of a rock and growled, his growl a meaning to be quiet. ''Ok; i know you apprentices dont like getting up this late at night, so im going to explain this quickly. All of the apprentices will be in a hunting competion, to see who can catch the most and biggest pray in under one hour. All the mentors shall be watching you, but they will not be seen, so keep that in mind. Now, are all the apprentices here?'' said Icefoot sternly. ''Everybodys in order, but were missing Jadepaw!'' yowled a cat from the back. ''Well, shes just going to have to miss this.'' growled Icefoot. ''Are you all ready?'' asked Icefoot. ''YAH!'' said all the appentices at the exact right moment. ''Then get hunting!'' mewed Icefoot, and he jumped off the rock and burst into the forest with the other mentors following.

She crept down the tall tree and could barely hear whiteclaw speaking to herself. "Is it a good or a bad thing my brother i my apprentice...." Whiteclaw whispered to herself. Jadepaw watched whiteclaw and heard the entire conversation.Once whiteclaw had faded away jadepaw scampered out of the tree."Im in lunar clan territory!!!If they catch me here i'll be in so much trouble!!" She ran as fast as she could.She nearly went cross eyed when she caught a scent of solar clan cats.She walked to where they all were and looked up at icefoot,"What might we be doing this late at night?" she said catching her breath.

Icefoots eyes went wide, and he looked at the rest of the mentors. ''Your supposed to be on a hunting challenge with the other apprentices; you can go join them and help them catch something. I hear three of them are trying to catch an eagle.'' Icefoot narrowed his eyes and continued.'' What, were you doing out here while i was explaining this?''
------------------- Birchpaw shifted his weight from the bushs he was hiding in. ''You sure the eagles going to come? we should have caught a fish...not a mouse...'' he whispered to the other two apprentices, Magicpaw and Duckpaw, who were crouched in the holly bush with him. Magicpaw rolled her eyes. ''A mouse is just fine! You can catch a fish if you want to, but im sticking with the mouse.'' ''Ok, i guess i`ll go get a fish then.'' snorted Birchpaw, quickly sliding out from under the bush and padding up towards the nearest river.

Icefoot studied Jadepaw, his tail twitching. ''All right; you may go with Magicpaw, Birchpaw and Duckpaw to go catch the eagle. Us mentors will stay hidden. Some of us are going to go watch Tiledpaw and Fernpaw as they go near were the adders are, while some of us are going to go watch all of you catch the eagle. Bear in mind, we wont be seen.'' replyed Icefoot, then dashing into another part of the forest when he was done. The other mentors followed him again. ------------------- Birchpaw sat down on the bank of a river and watched the water with remote eyes, his ear flicking every now and then at the occasinal call of a mockingbird. Didnt Magicpaw know that eagles liked fish better than mice? And why was Duckpaw being so silent? Birchpaw sighed and turned his attention back to the fish, his paw up and ready to swipe into the river. He saw a flash of green-silver, and his paw ducked agilely into the river and he scooped out the fish. The fish landed with a 'flwack!' and he quickly stomped his paw on the fish, killing it.

she nodded and walked towards where duckpaw and the others were. "Any luck with the eagle?" She asked.She was still numb in her paws from running so fast. She tried to hide that by paceing when she talked.

Birchpaw picked up the fish and then padded back to the bush. He felt slight shock run through him when he picked up the scent of another cat. Was a rouge around here? When he managed to scrable under the bush, he found out it wasnt a rouge, but it was Jadepaw, who was pacing around the area. ''Uh, no......we havent seen any so far. With luck, I`m hoping Birchpaws fish will work if were going to win this competion.'' mewed Duckpaw, who shot a wary glance towards Magicpaw who was curling her lip at the sleek cream she-cat. ''I`m going to go put this over there.'' said Birchpaw through his fish, then he slipped out of the low branchs of the bush, dropped the fish by the mouse, and quickly went back under the bush. ''I bet this is going to work, Magicpaw.'' he boasted, sticking his tounge out at Magicpaw who was now baring her teeth at him. ''I bet not! Lets make a bet; If the eagle gets the fish, i sleep near the entrance of the apprentices den for a moon. If the eagle gets the mouse, you have to sleep near the entrance!'' snapped back Magicpaw, whos tail was curling in delight at the thought of her winning the bet. ''Its a deal.'' replyed Birchpaw, his eyes narrowing.

"What if the eagle dosen't show up...?" She asked as she walked to the bush. "Would you both sleep by the entrance?" She said jokeingly.

Birchpaw flicked an ear. ''Hmmmm.....then i guess nobody would sleep by the entrance.'' he said. Birchpaw saw a flash of white from above and he looked up to see a blazing white eagle above them. The eagle swooped down from above, its talons aiming for the holly bush. Birchpaw growled. ''Fox dung! everybody get out of the bush!'' hissed Birchpaw, quietly, slipping out from under the bush and climbing up an Oak tree, his eyes glowing from the dark fronds of the tree. Duckpaw dashed out of the bush and followed him, setting herself on a branch just below him.

Jadepaw crept her way over to a log and hid there. "They honestly belive their safe up there it could fly up there and get both of them in one swing." She thought.Everybody watched the eagle prowl around."How are they going to catch it is the interesting part..." She spoke to herself.

Birchpaw watched the eagle prowl around with slitted eyes. He was almost sure Magicpaw and Jadepaw had hidden somewhere else. Birchpaw shifted his weight quietly and slowly unsheathed his claws. He was going to catch this eagle! The big bird turned around, its back towards Birchpaw, and from what Birchpaw could see, it picked up the fish, and tucked in its wings for lift-off, but before it could fly, Birchpaw leaped, and he landed on the big birds back. The eagle shrieked an alarm, and it tried to shake him off and snap at him with its beak. ''D-dont stand around! If you want to win this competition then help!'' said Birchpaw, digging his claws in deeper to the birds feathers and biting the back of the birds left wing. Slowly, Duckpaw leaped on her branch, landed on the ground and pounced on the bird, landing on its head. The pale she-cat started to claw the bird, digging her claws into the eagle so she wouldnt fall. The bird shrieked out in pain, and it spread out its wings to try and fly, but it found that it couldnt, because Birchpaw was still biting the birds wing.

"Say...where did magicpaw go..." Jadepaw thought.Either way that wasn't to important she unsheated her claws and clawed the bird across the chest.The scream of the eagle was almost painful to hear.The bird has fallen to the ground on account of its wing being chewed,the wounds from duckpaw and the slit on the chest from jadepaw.Jadepaw drew her claws back in and smiled."I think we just won." She chimed looking back and fourth at the two apprentices.

Birchpaw let go of the wing and leaped off the dead eagle, panting. Duckpaw did the same, and she landed on the ground and sat down. ''Guess who won the bet, Magicpaw!'' purred Birchpaw, puffing his chect out in pride. ''Now its your turn to sleep in the entrance of the apprentices den!'' A dark tail tapped him on the shoulder, and Birchpaw whipped around with delight sparkling in his eyes to see Magicpaw, who was baring her teeth at him, obviously not happy. ''Please! The eagle didnt pick up the fish and take it away! Lies! If anything, you have to sleep in the front of the den.'' sniffed Magicpaw, her eyes a stinging ray of violet. Birchpaw frowned and curled his lip. ''Now hold on! I thought we had a bet here! It picked up the fish, not the mouse!'' meowed Birchpaw, his eyes flashing.''Well it didnt eat the fish, so there for the bets over!'' snapped Magicpaw, her tail lashing, and she padded away, her nose high up in the air and her tail sticking straight up. Duckpaw sighed and shook her head.
